Truth

The world teaches us that there is no truth, only political correctness, opinion and popularity. This is not so. Truth is real and it can be discovered in every area of our concern. Truth is one of the most valuable things we can possess and worth the effort of a lifetime to discover. Often, as Christians, we believe that we can discover the truth of the gospel, but true principles of politics, science, culture and education etc.. are beyond our reach. They are not. My dad likes to say, "all means all".

D&C 8878 Teach ye diligently and my grace shall attend you, that you may be instructed more perfectly in theory, in principle, in doctrine, in the law of the gospel, in all things that pertain unto the kingdom of God, that are expedient for you to understand;79 Of things both in heaven and in the earth, and under the earth; things which have been, things which are, things which must shortly come to pass; things which are at home, things which are abroad; the wars and the perplexities of the nations, and the judgments which are on the land; and a knowledge also of countries and of kingdoms—80 That ye may be prepared in all things when I shall send you again to magnify the calling whereunto I have called you, and the mission with which I have commissioned you.

Moroni 10:55 And by the power of the Holy Ghost ye may know the truth of ALL things.John 8:3232 And ye shall know the truth, and the truth shall make you free.

About Me

I love God, family, friends and country and then in no particular order: painting, art, Jane Austen books and movies, Alexandra Stoddard, Mexican Paper Flowers, holidays, bright colors, ribbons and wrap, Granny Chic, music, poetry, bookclub, being out and about on a pretty day, bouqets of daisies, dancing class with my sweetie, going to lunch with girlfriends, hot pink outfits, happy people, Sun Valley, sunsets over the ponds and stars in the sky... and lots of other things!

We believe. We believe in our destiny as a nation. We believe we have been called to do good, to spread the blessings of liberty and encourage the sense of trust upon which free societies depend.~Tony Snow
